Adam Gase Left for Peyton Manning Meeting Right After Wife Gave Birth in 2013

New York Jets head coach Adam Gase is dedicated to his job. So dedicated, in fact, that he didn't even skip a meeting with quarterback Peyton Manning when the two were employed by the Denver Broncos in 2013.

Why is that notable? Well, because his wife had just given birth.

Dan Pompei of The Athletic recounts the story:

"The file for Oct. 1, 2013, is particularly interesting. Every Tuesday when he was in Denver, Gase met with Manning at 2 p.m. Except this Tuesday, when Jennifer was delivering Wyatt by caesarean section.
